This is an easy activity.
Just to make painting more fun! 

It’s perfect for little hands that have a hard time holding on to brushes. And still fun for older kids. My 6 year old still enjoyed this activity.

You will need:

1. Muffin/cupcake pan (you can use paper plates if you dont have this)
2. Cotton Balls
3. Laundry clips
4. Finger paints
5. Paper

I used 2 cotton balls for each color so the boys each had their own. 

I let those little hands put the laundry clips on the cotton balls.

Put some paint on the pan and start painting!

Teo wore a painting frock because at 1 year and 8 months he’s still a VERY messy painter and gets paint everywhere. 

It’s good to line the painting surface with newspaper and secure the paper on to the table. I used masking tape.

Here is Caleb’s work of art.

And here is Teo’s.  

We still had some paint left over. 

So I put the leftover paint on their hands and let them stamp / print it on to paper. 

30 minutes of messy fun. All done!

Thanks for stopping by! 

Till next time!
